1. Change 0.015 to a fraction.

• A. 3/200
• B. 3/2000
• C. 15/1000
• D. 3/100

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert 0.015 to a fraction, we can rewrite it as 15/1000. Simplifying this fraction, we get 3/200. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (3/2000) is incorrect as the decimal 0.015 is equivalent to 15/1000, not 15/2000. Choice C (15/1000) is the initial form of 0.015 as a fraction, but it can be further simplified to 3/200. Choice D (3/100) is incorrect as it does not represent the decimal 0.015.

2. What is the result of 0.003 x 4.23?

• A. 0.01269
• B. 0.01029
• C. 0.01419
• D. 0.01329

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To find the product of 0.003 and 4.23, multiply the two numbers: 0.003 x 4.23 = 0.01269. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 0.01269. Choice B, 0.01029, is incorrect as it is the result of a different calculation. Choice C, 0.01419, is incorrect because it is not the product of 0.003 and 4.23. Choice D, 0.01329, is also incorrect as it does not represent the correct multiplication result.

3. How many yards are in a mile?

• A. 1,760
• B. 1,700
• C. 1,800
• D. 1,750

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 1,760. According to the standard distance conversion, there are 1,760 yards in a mile. This conversion is widely accepted and used in various fields. Choice B, 1,700, is incorrect as it does not correspond to the standard conversion. Choice C, 1,800, represents a different value and is therefore incorrect. Choice D, 1,750, is not the accurate conversion for yards in a mile and is incorrect.

4. Round to the tenths place: What is 6.4% of 32?

• A. 1.8
• B. 2.1
• C. 2.6
• D. 2.0

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find 6.4% of 32, first calculate 6.4% as a decimal (0.064) and then multiply it by 32 to get 2.048. When rounding to the tenths place, 2.048 is rounded to 2.1 because the digit after the tenths place is 8, which is equal to or greater than 5. Choice A is incorrect as it does not reflect the accurate calculation. Choices C and D are also incorrect because they do not match the correct result of multiplying 6.4% by 32 and rounding to the tenths place.

5. How many liters are in 120 milliliters?

• A. 1.2 liters
• B. 12 liters
• C. 1,200 liters
• D. 0.12 liters

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, divide the milliliters by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. In this case, 120 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 0.12 liters. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.12 liters. Choice A (1.2 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly moved the decimal point. Choice B (12 liters) is incorrect as it incorrectly multiplied by 10 instead of dividing by 1000. Choice C (1,200 liters) is incorrect as it added an extra zero, resulting in a much larger value.
